We can not convert people to become Christian. It is the job of the Holy Spirit. I know Jesus said "Go and make disciples, preaching the gospel to all the nations." So why are we believing we have some quota to meet and that if someone hasn't turned their heart to God that we can say or do anything to make that happen? Simply we are to preach the gospel (plant the seed) and in believing in the gospel of Jesus Christ,the Holy Spirit will take over from there. "Follow me". Not little ol' me but follow Jesus's example. We are to preach the gospel with "love". Not all Christians are, but my goodness some of us are behaving VERY badly. We know the commandments, we know who our Father is and what He alone has done for us. My heart is burdened not by the fact that we struggle with sin but we lay in it. We have been saved by grace, not of works, lest any man should boast. Do your good deeds before man that he may see and glorify your Father who is in heaven. Let your light shine. God bless!!
